Valley Of The Damned - Dragonforce > Reviews

Advantages: The Force is Strong!!
Disadvantages: Singer is only 75% Good, Solo's are just nonsense

Dragonforce, to put it bluntly, are the best fast band I've ever heard. They manage to infuse their music with an immense amount of melody, yet still have the bpm-counter close to that of even the most psychopathic types of drugged-up club music. To say that Dragonforce are the best fast band, however, is not to say that they are the best band ever. Not even close.

Advantages: +4 Sword of Hardcore Speed Metal
Disadvantages: Not for everyone, hard to relate to

I never would have expected a band who write almost exclusively about fantasy RPG style adventures set entirely within the realms of fiction to be any good.

Advantages: Catchy as hell
Disadvantages: Not their best production quality

This is a high-octane blast onto the music scene by one of the most promising metal bands to emerge from Britain for years. Already an underground sensation among power metal fans, it features all the songs featured on their internet-downloadable demo (then called 'Dragonheart') plus a few more strong additions. To dub this band simply 'power metal' however would be an injustice. The band's sound features qualities of death/black metal (listen to ... Read review

Dragonforce is an OK band. This CD is one of their best ones, while their newer songs and albums are pure noise, this CD shows talent. There while there most popular song "Through the Fire and the Flames" is one the album "Inhuman Rampage" I would recommend this CD over any other Dragonfoce Album
